(THANK YOU ANNA FOR SOURCE OF PICTURES!)

It took Andy a few hours to have this look done

Andy, under the invitation of Macau government, recorded a song, Song Of Macau to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Macau hand-over to China. This song incorporates the characteristic scenic spots of Haojing (Macau) sucas as Da San Ba, Ma Ke Temple, as well as the white lotus which represents Macau. Andy transforms himself to a Peking opera artiste & filmed an MV for the song.

After several hours of make-up, & putting on a theatrical costume weighing 20 lb, even Andy the Iron-man has to agree, “Behind the stage is ten years of artistic skill, on the stage is just a minute.” He has heartfelt respect for the Peking opera master.

On this new look to portray the song, Andy said he had been thinking hard how to showcase the process Macau went through these 10 years, he then thought of using drama stage to represent, this is quite an ideal way, "From since the ancient days, many celebratory activities use Peking opera to bring out the feel, to me this is a new challenge, I hope everyone can through this song feel Macau through the stage performance."

MV of this song will be broadcasted in the 4 areas across the straits starting from tomorrow, in December, the month to celebrate 10th anniversary, this MV will be shown 10 over cities worldwide.

This is because he has to put on layer upon layer clothes under the armor, including a soft lined jacket. The 4-sided flags were tied with thick rope on the back, the weight including the headgear is 20 over lbs. During the practice of throwing & receiving actions, the armor was too heavy & he lost the center of gravity, he almost tumbled over. During filming, other than air-con, big fans were used, but he was still drenched with sweat. the staff had fan him by the side to cool him down. After completing the photography, he heaved a sigh of relief.

ANDY DID NOT FIND A SUITABLE TIME TO TELL
LOW-KEYED MARRIAGE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FANS

Andy was called 'King Liar' after his marriage with ZLQ was kept secret, he did not explain the reason for not telling, outsiders all thought he was afraid to be abandoned by his fans. Andy finally clarified that the cover up has nothing to do with his fans, there are other reasons.

In August when his f-i-l passed away he secretly accompanied ZLQ back to Malaysia for the funeral, under intense pressure for the first time in 24 years he openly held her hands to come back to HK together. Later, his marriage in Las Vegas was exposed. He had said before that he would tell the whole world if he was married, he was thus severely criticized for telling lie. He however just said sorry.

At an interview by mainland fashion magazine CQ, on the rumor that he was afraid his fans would be unhappy with his marriage he said that this assumption is too belittling, he has other reasons, he feels that time was not right for him to be open, so he did not say it out. Those who like him know his way of life, gossips on his private life are from those who do not show him concern, there is no need for him to explain. He stresses that everybody has his own way of life, it is very hard for him to explain why this is so. He just feels that only when it is time he will say it.

In 2007 the father of a fan committed suicide. This matter left him with some reservations, he was ashamed & uneasy & was plagued by death threats. The worst was after the chain reaction after the incidence, he received few hundred calls, & thousands of sms-s everyday, the content being if he did not go to meet him/her, they would commit suicide. He shivered on hearing the phone rang, he had insomnia , he was afraid there would be a second father Yang. This went on for half a month, he could only sought help of a psychiatric. The dr took away his phone & told him he would be responsible should anything happen. After 10 over days everything was then quiet.

He also mentioned the love-hate relationship with the media, if he does not handle well he will get hurt. He said he is not afraid if they write negative news, if he can be destroyed with a pen by the media then he has he himself to blame for not doing well. He is most afraid of internet world, as one cannot find the source or origin. He mentioned years ago a secret about his concert, many of the workers left because of a tiff. When the media know about this they gave him time to settle it, instead of making it open. Finally he solved the problem. Many reporters came to show support at his concert, he was so touched that he cried incessantly. He was very thin & his fans thought he had cancer. He was very grateful to help of the reporters. http://epaper.jinghu

He gave assistance to LL, Edison & other artistes to become bosses.

.............

Xie Xiao: You have known Andy since aTV days, for years his reputation is not bad, how would you access him? Regarding the recent hidden marriage, do you approve his behavior?

Mr Lam: I have known him for a long time, as far as I know he is a very nice person, in his whole life the ones he loved the most are his fans. Really he has no intention to cover up that thing, I understand him. He is an artiste, on some of his private life, he does not wish to talk, or does not wish to tell us too early, but he knows that sooner or later we will get to know. The question is, he always hopes to have a time when he can tell everyone. A pity, everyone gets to know before this day comes. Some fans say, I will not forgive him this whole life for cheating us, but some will say, getting married or not is not an issue, doesn't everybody know that they have been together these 20 over years?

Xie Xiao: But he always said he was not married, this became a lie.

Mr Lam: His marriage is something recent, one to two year, but he has been with that girl for 20 over years, does that meant he cheated that girl 20 over years? Everyone knows he has a gf these 20 over years, now his gf becomes his wife, this is not a big issue. If he steal or rob a bank, then it is very serious, this is not, I feel that this is because everyone loves him too much that it becomes anger when she cannot have him. I do not love him, so I feel nothing about this. Haha.
